Dive into these digital blueprints of the Roman Space Telescope! Check the status of specific instruments, equipment, and hardware in our new interactive, your one-stop shop for learning about the Roman spacecraft! go.nasa.gov/3zvvSmP
Signed, Sealed, Delivered! 📦 ✅ @NASARoman’s Optical Telescope Assembly was officially delivered to @NASAGoddard! With this milestone completed, Roman remains on track for launch by May 2027! 🚀 Learn more: go.nasa.gov/4hNUxZe
The final puzzle piece is here! After passing final thermal vacuum testing at @L3HarrisTech, the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope's Optical Telescope Assembly has arrived at @NASAGoddard 📸: NASA/Chris Gunn go.nasa.gov/4fIHV3N
“I always want to showcase science in a way that helps people really understand what’s going on.” Senior multimedia producer Scott Wiessinger grew up in a household where art and education were intertwined. Now, he blends the two for Roman. go.nasa.gov/4fdCrOD
That's one good-looking mirror 🪞 Roman's Optical Telescope Assembly has completed critical thermal vacuum testing at @L3Harris! Check out the post below ⬇️
@NASARoman Integrated Optical Assembly has completed thermal vacuum testing! Our team brought the telescope’s mirrors down to -63 Celsius (-82 Fahrenheit) to ensure they could function across the temperature gradients in orbit. 🥶
When @NASARoman takes flight, it will unveil the cosmos like never before. Learn more about the Roman Coronograph Instrument, which will serve as the eyes for NASA's next flagship astrophysics mission. nasa.gov/missions/roman…
In May, the @NASARoman Coronagraph Instrument was delivered from JPL to @NASAGoddard 🚚 Now, it's passed another major milestone: integration! More on this tech demo that will block starlight to directly observe exoplanets: go.nasa.gov/4fnrfP2
One step closer to seeing the once hidden! 🔍🪐 The Coronagraph Instrument has been installed into the Instrument Carrier. This instrument will block out the light of distant stars to unveil planets orbiting around them. go.nasa.gov/3C2cfb6 📸: NASA/Sydney Rohde
Got some time? Sit back, relax, and watch 57 minutes of the centrifuge test time-lapse: go.nasa.gov/4h3ENRs
🎶 Ring around the Roman @NASARoman’s Outer Barrel Assembly (OBA) just took a spin — a few actually — on Goddard’s centrifuge. The OBA will keep Roman’s temperature stable & shield it from stray light. It’s so large that it had to be tested in pieces. go.nasa.gov/4f6CUli
Sit back, relax, and watch the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope's Outer Barrel Assembly undergo centrifuge testing at @NASAGoddard Learn more about the test: go.nasa.gov/3Y6WnLU
🎶 You spin me right round, baby right round. 🎶 The centrifuge spins at extreme speeds to simulate launch and space conditions. Learn more about the importance of this test for Roman's Outer Barrel Assembly: go.nasa.gov/4ewYXlh 📸 NASA/ Chris Gunn
Photographer Chris Gunn has worked on missions like @NASAHubble and @NASAWebb and now leads the team to document Roman's progress. His passion for figuring out how things work gives him a unique perspective when it comes to highlighting @NASA missions. go.nasa.gov/3YaiHpd
Milestone alert 🚨 The Roman mission is moving towards the next stage of construction, bringing all the components together! Take a look at how we got there ⬇️
Have you ever wanted to create your own galaxy in a jar? What about a fizzy black hole? Or some marshmallow constellations? You’ve come to the right place; check out these and more space crafts below! go.nasa.gov/3ZCSkt7
A bus built for "Roman" around! 🚌 @NASARoman's spacecraft bus has completed construction, installation, and testing. Next up, engineers will begin integrating Roman's major components, including the science instruments and the telescope itself. go.nasa.gov/3B51RyG
Our tour bus is ready to take this show on the galactic road! 🚌 🪐 Roman's spacecraft bus is complete! The structure will maneuver Roman to L2, a million miles away, and allow the telescope to complete its tasks. Learn more: go.nasa.gov/3B48e5A 📸: NASA/Chris Gunn
